In this episode, ILA Radio welcomes Dr. Angela Meyers, a deep-feeling, wide-seeing human who processes reality through listening, absorbing, and sensing. With a Taurus Sun and Scorpio Moon, she embodies both earthy steadiness and emotional depth—making her a natural synthesizer of intellect and intuition.

This episode is for anyone who processes the world through vibes as much as facts, who’s been told to “pick a lane,” or who’s learning to let their inner compass include all the directions.

🎧 Listen in and remember:
you are allowed to be complex—and built to perceive more than one kind of truth.

HOW DO WE KNOW WHAT WE KNOW?

AM: “I’m so curious about different things. I sort of can’t learn unless I listen. I really pay attention. Pretty well. Every once in a while I time travel—but 99.9% of the time, when I’m with someone, I’m like, what can I absorb? So I spend a lot of my time just absorbing information and perspective.

And I love to hear from people who think differently than me. Like, I love to hear from people who have bizarre, far-out beliefs—because then I can get a new perspective. Is there a puzzle where it makes sense?

I take in a lot of information, and then I feel like I go through this internal process—I can’t even quite put it into words—where something just resonates, or there’s a gut feeling about it, or a trueness that I can sense about it… or not.

So like, my body and my feelings are part of how I process what I collect intellectually.”

INTUITION & INTELLECT

AM: Sometimes intuition shows up during my waking hours—like little glitches in the matrix. And then there are dreams at night—prophetic ones—that feel like they tap into something beyond logic. It feels like a form of intelligence we haven’t fully understood yet. Maybe it’s how we stay connected to the larger noosphere, to something bigger than ourselves.

ON THE NATURE OF REALITY

AM: I’ve always felt like we’re not just here to be shaped—we get to shape ourselves. I think of it like curating my own identity, sculpting who I am, and staying open to what life brings. That dance between intention and emergence—that’s being fully alive.

When synchronicities happen, it feels like the universe is showing me something. Sometimes I wonder: is this a spiritual experience? A simulation? If we’re already building virtual realities that are nearly indistinguishable from life, how do we know we’re not in one now?

I stay open because that feels like the most logical way to be. Consciousness is wild. Reality is weird. And maybe the most human thing we can do is play with possibility—shape our experience, shape the world, and listen to the things we can’t quite explain.

THOUGHTS ON EDUCATION

AM: If I could change one thing, it’d be how we shape the mind. Education should be about sovereignty—about actually becoming who we are. Right now, it’s mostly programming. Memorize this. Think like your teacher. There’s no freedom in that. My daughter gets it the first time—but she’s still gotta sit there. It’s not about cultivating, it’s about compliance.

I want learning to be self-directed, lifelong, and life-wide. Poly-expressive. Less wasted time on stuff we don’t care about and more real curiosity. Because we forget what we’re forced to learn—but we become what we choose to explore.

LEARNING FROM NATURE

AM: Consciousness might be a universal phenomenon—decentralized, but shared. We’re not isolated; we’re embedded in something bigger. Earth itself seems alive. It has tectonic shifts, a fiery core—it responds when we’re out of balance. Maybe the planet is its own kind of body, with its own form of sentience.

I feel most grounded in nature. I once hugged a tree in Argentina and cried—it felt ancient, strong, and alive. We treat trees like resources, but they breathe for us. We are nature, and we’re also its stewards. We’ve done damage, but I believe with awareness and intention, we can help heal the planet.

LEARNING FROM AI

AM: The most employable humans today are polymathic: they’re good at learning, good at working across a stack of tools, especially in the age of AI. The specialist knowledge still matters, but the human user is now the synthesizer.

The nature of work in the age of AI is calling us to become more polymathic—to ask better questions, to integrate different disciplines. It’s an art form: listening to our guts, listening to our hearts, bringing our whole embodied selves into our work.

There also needs to be a shift in how we train gatekeepers in organizations—so they can actually recognize and support this change.

---

AM: To me, the answer is: we don’t have to be anything anymore. We get to be free—to live more fully in our humanity. That’s a beautiful gift. AI has the potential to help us live much longer—maybe even indefinitely. With medical advances, reversing aging, even swapping out body parts like we’re tuning up a car. It could keep us company. It could change everything.

Still, I worry. Not so much about AI itself, but about the transition—moving from the old world into the new. That’s the part that feels most fragile. And let’s be honest: the old world? It’s not working for a lot of people. It’s deeply dysfunctional. But even as we move forward, we can’t ignore the status quo or the state of our planet. We’re in a fragile in-between.

The most powerful thing about AI is its potential to create abundance—maybe even a kind of heaven on Earth. If we pair intelligence with benevolence, it can do extraordinary things.

Yes, jobs will change. Things that have worn us down—AI might take them off our plates. But I worry about humanity’s ability to navigate the in-between, the discomfort of change. If you’re feeling fear around AI, that’s okay. Feel your feelings. Don’t suppress them—that’s how they come back or show up in your body as illness. Go through your process. But don’t get trapped in fear.

Because here’s the truth: AI is here. It’s not going away. This is our new reality.
